Is this the Samsung Vibrant 4G out in the wild?

The Galaxy S lineup has been a huge success for Samsung
last year, but this year 4G is the hot topic and the Koreans are
doing their best to stay competitive. The Samsung Vibrant 4G for T-Mobile, Sammy's latest bid in
the 4G race, was rumored
for a release on February 23rd and now it has also
appeared in photographs from a tipster
for tech blog BGR.

There, the Samsung Vibrant 4G
surprisingly
runs Android 2.3instead of Froyo, while the whole experience was
described as “smooth” and “stupid fast.” Samsung's updates
might still be a sensitive topic for many, but the Korean company
seems to be quick in releasing new handsets.

The familiar 4-inch Super AMOLED
screen will remain the same in the Vibrant 4G, but the device adds 21
Mbps-capable HSPA+ radio, the fastest on T-Mobile so far. As of
now the handset was reported to run Vanilla Android, but TouchWiz
is due to be out for Gingerbread soon and this might change. The
Vibrant 4G also brings a front-facing camera for easier video
calling. It is still unclear how this
phone will stand in the company of the upcoming dual-core
heavyweights, so let's wait for an official announcement.

Ummm......Motoblur is Motorola, not Samsung. Gingerbread is "skins" free (skin free), and the Vibrant 4G will run Froyo, NOT Gingerbread. I know some say different but no Gingerbread on the Vibrant 4G at launch, sorry.
